Beaufort, North Carolina 28516

Beaufort NC is an historical gem located on the Crystal Coast
of North Carolina. Beaufort was declared a town in 1722 and
remained a major trade center until after the Civil War.

Trade with prosperous islands in the Carribean influenced the
style of Beaufort homes with graceful stairways leading to
breezy verandas becoming popular. This style of home is still
build today and reflected in newer Beaufort NC luxury homes.

Commercial fishing replaced trade after the Civil War then
Beaufort gradually became a favored summer retreat. Homes
were respectfully restored and Beaufort NC is now on the
National Registry of Historic Places. New luxury homes and
restored historic homes are for sale in this charming town.
